Re: Victorian sightings
in reply to a message by Tiggs
Uthred is probably a version of Uhtred/Ughtred, a dithematic Old English name - for meaning, see here: http://www.behindthename.com/submit/name/ughtred. There was an Anglo-Saxon name revival trend in mid-Victorian England, but this was an unusual one. Uther has Welsh roots.

Thanks...I like the meaning of Ughtred but not so much the sound. Guessing Uthred would probably be "Uh-tred"?
